In basecamp, on a bivy or under a lean-to, this jacket provides a rarity in the mountains: immediate gratification. The Puff is soft, featherweight and compressible. It shuns wind and light precipitation, dries quickly, and wears well on its own or under a shell. The front zip is backed by a wind flap and chin guard; the removable hood has snaps hidden under the placket, and the elastic/spandex cuffs and drawcord hem seal out icy air.
